freakyhax (combined with universal-otherapp) is compatible with versions 1.0.0 through 11.7.0 on EUR, USA, or JPN region devices.
What You Need
- A EUR/USA/JPN copy of Freakyforms Deluxe (eShop or cartridge)
- The latest release of freakyhax
- The latest release of SafeB9SInstaller
- The latest release of boot9strap (`boot9strap-1.3.zip`; not the `devkit` file, not the `ntr` file)
- The latest release of Luma3DS
- The latest release of universal-otherapp
Instructions
Section I - Prep Work
- Power off your device
- Insert your SD card into your computer
- Copy all files and folders inside the /build/<your console and region>/exploit/ folder from the freakyhax `.zip` to the root of your SD card
- Copy `otherapp.bin` to the root of your SD card
- Copy `boot.firm` and `boot.3dsx` from the Luma3DS `.zip` to the root of your SD card
- Create a folder named `boot9strap` on the root of your SD card
- Copy `boot9strap.firm` and `boot9strap.firm.sha` from the boot9strap `.zip` to the `/boot9strap/` folder on your SD card
- Copy `SafeB9SInstaller.bin` from the SafeB9SInstaller `.zip` to the root of your SD card
- Reinsert your SD card into your device
- Power on your device
Section II - Launching SafeB9SInstaller
- Reinsert your SD card into your device
- Power on your device
- Launch Freakyforms Deluxe
- In the game menu, select `Play -> Camera -> Load a QR code`
- Select the QR code
- If the exploit was successful, you will have booted into SafeB9SInstaller
Section III - Installing boot9strap
- Wait for all checks to complete
- When prompted, input the key combo given on the top screen to install boot9strap
- Once it has completed, press (A) to reboot your device
Section IV - Configuring Luma3DS
- Your device should have rebooted into the Luma3DS configuration menu
- If you get a black screen, follow this troubleshooting guide
- Use the (A) button and the D-Pad to turn on the following:
- "Show NAND or user string in System Settings"
- Press (Start) to save and reboot
- If you get an error, just continue the next page
At this point, your console will boot to Luma3DS by default as long as the SD card is inserted.
- Luma3DS does not look any different from the normal HOME menu. If your console has booted into the HOME menu, it is running custom firmware.
- On the next page, you will copy Luma3DS to internal memory so that you can boot without an SD card.
